2021 Porsche 911 GT3 PDK

To pop the hood on a Jaguar F-Type, first make sure the car's completely switched off. Then, down by your left foot in the driver's footwell, you'll spot a lever with a little hood icon on it. Give that a gentle pull—you should hear the first latch release with a soft "click." Next, head around to the front of the car, slide your fingers into the gap at the center of the hood's leading edge, feel for the secondary latch, flip it up, and then lift the hood smoothly. It's got that double-latch setup, which is standard on a lot of luxury sports cars—Porsche 911s use something similar—to keep it rock-solid at high speeds, which makes total sense for a car like this. Quick tip for Malaysian owners: with the hot, humid weather over there, it’s a good idea to check your fluids regularly and keep an eye on hoses for any signs of wear, especially before and after the rainy season. And if you ever struggle to open the hood? Don’t force it—grab the owner’s manual for the emergency release steps or hit up your local Jaguar service center. These premium sports cars have pretty intricate mechanicals, so messing around without knowing what you’re doing could end up causing unnecessary damage. Better safe than sorry, right?
